Actual Mc Donald's application for Employment

These are actual answers on a McDonald's application submitted by a 17 year old kid someplace in Florida. They actually hired him too. I think this kid's gonna go far...

NAME: Greg Bulmash.

SEX: Not yet. Still waiting for the right person.

DESIRED POSITION: Company's President or Vice President. But seriously, whatever's available. If I was in a position to be picky, I wouldn't be applying here in the first place.

DESIRED SALARY: $185,000 a year plus stock options and a Michael Ovitz style severance package. If that's not possible, make an offer and we can haggle.

LAST POSITION HELD: Target for middle management hostility.

SALARY: Less than I'm worth.

MOST NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENT: My incredible collection of stolen pens and post-it notes.

REASON FOR LEAVING: It sucked.

HOURS AVAILABLE TO WORK: Any.

PREFERRED HOURS: 1:30-3:30 p.m., Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday.

DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIAL SKILLS?: Yes, but they're better suited to a more intimate environment.

MAY WE CONTACT YOUR CURRENT EMPLOYER?: If I had one, would I be here?

DO YOU HAVE ANY PHYSICAL CONDITIONS THAT WOULD PROHIBIT YOU FROM LIFTING UP TO 50 LBS?: Of what?

DO YOU HAVE A CAR?: I think the more appropriate question here would be "Do you have a car that runs?"

HAVE YOU RECEIVED ANY SPECIAL AWARDS OR RECOGNITION?: I may already be a winner of the Publishers Clearing house Sweepstakes.

DO YOU SMOKE?: On the job no, on my breaks yes.

WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE DOING IN FIVE YEARS?: Living in the Bahamas with a fabulously wealthy dumb sexy blonde super model who thinks I'm the greatest thing since sliced bread. Actually, I'd like to be doing that now.

DO YOU CERTIFY THAT THE ABOVE IS TRUE AND COMPLETE TO THE BEST OF YOUR KNOWLEDGE?: Yes. Absolutely.

SIGN HERE: Aries.

Moments....


"Life isn't a matter of milestones, but of moments."" People don't remember days but moments."
I 've stopped writing blogs for a while not because I don't have time but I realised I was lost in my own world for a while. I remember sharing to my cousin that I wanted to be a NEW me! Sadly, it turned out to be an OLD me.
I suddenly found inspiration to write a few words after hiding in my own cave reflecting "what is life after death?" I just lost my grandpa who unconditionally sponsored my tertiary education. I could still remember the moment when I needed to pay for my uni fees, I would ask from my parents and all they could do was just to refer me to him. I felt very embarrass each time I faced my grandpa asking for money. That time, my mum always asked me to pay back my grandpa' s contribution by studying hard and becoming a graduate. I felt that I did not do my best to pay him back as I am a full timehouse wife now contributing nothing to the society.
Well, not until I read an article about how a lady who suffered from cancer treasure and be grateful of life, I was still in my cave feeling hopeless and aimless. I learn that life is not about how much of wealth we ve been chasing after, how much of endless tasks we ve to accomplish each day, which part of the world we ve not travelled to, which profession we have, howmuch salary we earn, where we have our dinner, BUT life is about the moments we spend each day learning not to stop laughing because we grow old ; we grow old because we stop laughing. Lifeis about the good thoughts we have for God, those who are dear to us in the family, disabled, a few out of millions of unfortunate people out there who need our help.
It is very sad to see siblings fighting over money matter. When we were much younger, even a sweet also we could share eating. But, when we are grown ups,why can't we do the same? Is money really that important?
